Save the Date: Freedom On Tap: P. J. O’Rourke Let’s have a riot, but Independence style. I am excited to announce that we will be hosting one of our dearest friends, humorist, and author P. J. O’Rourke as our special guest on Freedom on Tap! So plan on grabbing your favorite booze for this video call-in happy hour and joining us at our video bar. Yes, drinking is required. So mark your calendar for 7:00 pm MT on Tuesday June 16th. More information to come on how to join us! And remember every Friday night at 8:30 pm MT to tune into Devil’s Advocate on PBS Channel 12. This week I’ll be talking to journalists Dave Krieger and Wayne Laugesen. And catch all our video work by following our IITV Channel on YouTube.
